Simple user interface

Easy-to-use backup and recovery options

Barman Features

Barman relies on PostgreSQL’s extremely robust and reliable Point In Time Recovery (PITR) technology. Some of the most important features of Barman that improve the backup and recovery process are:

Zero data loss backups. Allows the user to have zero data loss clusters with only one standby server.

Cooperation with standby servers. Allows the standby server to fetch WAL files from Barman whenever streaming replication with the primary server is not working.
